Pentium 200Mhz machines with NT 4.0 are recommended.
Highly interactive applications written in Java(tm)
run best under the above conditions, at this point
in history. Implementations of Java on other
platforms hamper to varying degrees the "smooth"
interactive animation in this work.

Project deals with a potentially infinite and multi-participatory space which participants navigate by "caressing" (with a circular motion) the interface of the program. The circular caresses allow participants to "burrow" deeper into the space. The space's depths are demarcated by "buried" notes (written by me) which become visible as one burrows toward them. A participant may also leave buried additional notes of her or his own. Because this work is a real-time, multi-participatory mechanism, participants "occupying" the space at the same time may write to each other by typing in notes through the keyboard. However, to do so, they must first find each other within this ambiguous space. Alternatively, participants may leave messages behind for others -- a sort of archiving act. Participants' notes dacay over time. On a given day, I may have a different set of notes up. The notes speak about the archival process, the desedimentation of habits, and how these issues are affected/infected by technology.

This project is a distributed software artwork. It functions over the internet, but does not need the World Wide Web (WWW). However, a web component (Java applet) is included in order to give access to participants not physically located at the gallery.
